Anse Marron Hike
Anse Marron
A guided adventure hike at the southern end of La Digue, crossing boulders and coastline to a natural pool ringed by reefs.
Anse Marron lies south of Source d'Argent beach. No road leads there, so you reach it by climbing and wading along the coast from either end of Source d'Argent or Grand Anse, between the boulders. The one-way trip takes about 1–1.5 hours. The destination is a natural pool enclosed by granite and reef, with raw, unspoiled scenery. Because the route is hard to follow and tides have a strong effect, some visitors have gotten lost. A local guided group is strongly recommended (about 50–80 euros). Good fitness is required. Wear shoes suited to wading, and keep electronics waterproofed.
